intentional living, little by little

No.891: February Little Things Bingo

I had so much fun making January’s bingo board last year that I decided to make another one for February!  Just like before, the board has 24 free or inexpensive tasks that will hopefully bring joy, peace and/or a boost of creativity.  We’ll see how many I can check off the list.  If you need a little something to get you through this month, feel free to play along too!

The tasks are:

  • Go for a 20 minute walk outside. // A prompt from January’s board that is worth repeating!  Breathe deep in the winter air and get that blood flowing.
  • Send someone a valentine. // Some ideas: this garland mailer or this DIY Valentine’s Day in a box looks so fun!  I also loved this envelope decoration.
  • Watch a documentary. // Let’s learn something!  I’m especially interested in choosing something from this world history documentary Youtube channel.
  • Give $5 to a favorite charity or blogger. // Little amounts still matter!
  • Bake cupcakes. // Lots of delicious choices: make a classic flavor like vanilla or chocolate or try something unique like salted caramel or even chocolate chip!
  • Light a new candle. // A similar challenge is to use up a candle you’ve already started burning.
  • Clean unnecessary photos off of the phone. // I desperately need to do this!  So many times I take multiple photos (to get the best one) and then never delete the extras after.
  • Stretch. // As we get older, our mobility becomes more and more important.  A great habit to incorporate to avoid injury.
  • Buy some flowers. // I’m going to be on the lookout for ranunculus.
  • Paint, sketch or draw. // This can be as complicated as completing a watercolor course to just doodling in the margins of your planner.  It all counts!
  • Declutter ten items. // Bonus points if you can declutter more than ten.
  • Make a garden plan. // Even though it doesn’t feel like it, spring planting is right around the corner!  Browse through seed catalogs or websites and choose a few to grow this year.
  • Do a random act of kindness. // The possibilities are endless, but this is a great list to get the ideas flowing.  (I have an old post with some ideas too.)
  • Make a new soup. // Chilly evenings call for something warm in your belly.  This post has a lot of delicious options.
  • Invite someone over. // Consider this a gentle push toward inviting someone over for dinner or even just a play date.
  • Take a nap. // A luxury for most of us!
  • Read a love story. // I’m not a big romance reader, but two books on my TBR are Green Dolphin Street by Elizabeth Goudge and The Good Part by Sophie Cousens.
  • Play a board game. // I’m thinking we need to pull out our Scrabble board.
  • Clean your bedding. // Time to wash those quilts and duvets.  Washing your bed pillows would be an accomplishment too.
  • Order new skincare. // A similar task would be to just start using the skincare you already own!  I definitely need to be better about creating a routine in this area.
  • Wear something pink or red. // I’m not sure I even have clothing in those two colors, but we’ll see.
  • Deep clean the pantry. // A great opportunity to inventory what you own and prioritize food that is about to expire.
  • Feed the birds. // This activity looks easy and fun.
  • Make a homemade pizza. // Yum.

    Fun and healthy ideas on your Bingo board. If it helps to know, I didn’t get the feel that I was reading a romance novel when I read Green Dolphin Street so if you’re not normally a romance novel fan, I think you’ll still like this one.
    I love playing Scrabble, too. If you are a Scrabble fan and haven’t heard of Bananagrams, I recommend that!
    Have a great weekend!
